The Party of Communists thinks that Moldova would only benefit from a parliamentary majority capable of electing the President. Considering the parliamentary parties' duty to strengthen society instead of dividing it, PCRM launches a call for the other parliamentary parties to initiate constructive talks to this end, IPN reports.
In an interview with Radio Free Europe, PCRM's Artur Resetnicov said that the failure to elect a President is the point where a political crisis could start, something that the Moldovans don't need, regardless of who they voted for. According to him, this problem that could arise in March 2016 must be prevented from the very beginning. “I think it's about time we come out of the barricades and put an end to the political struggle. We are one country, one nation and it's time we do something for the citizens of Moldova. If we continue firing arrows at one another, the country won't only stagnate but may fall into darkness”, said Resetnicov.
The politician stressed that PCRM didn't talk directly to any party. The call is an internal decision of the party and a public message for the whole society. “I say it again, regardless of the ideology or color of the elected parties that entered the Parliament, we must find aspects that unite us, not that divide us, because we are all part of Moldovan society. I hope that politicians won't only hear this call of ours, but appreciate it correctly”, said the MP.
“We have decided that we might examine the possibility of initiating consultations with the parliamentary parties in order to strengthen society, to fortify the independence, sovereignty and neutrality of the country and boost its reintegration. In other words, if the parties in the Parliament put aside some differences and ideologies and consider the voters' option, who want normal things: peace and prosperity in Moldova, then the Party of Communists can contribute to the development of Moldova”, said the politician.
Asked about the criticism aimed at the Communists' Assembly by some former party members like Mark Tkaciuk, Resetnicov said that they cut all their links to the party in June and even worked against PCRM and its leader during the electoral campaign. “This character had always hidden behind Vladimir Voronin and did all that he did. None of his actions lead to peace and prosperity in Moldova. All this radicalism isn't typical of the Moldovan people, it doesn't help. We are open to proposals and opinions in favor of creating, building something, but when they always come with destructive messages and funerary songs, it's like the previous century and I feel sorry for such an attitude. It's on their conscience and morals”, said Resetnicov.
In the new Parliament, PCRM has 21 seats after winning 17.48% of the vote in the November 30 election.
